Default memory seat linked to key

Hey got a quick question, I saw in the manual how to link the key fob to seat memory the only problem is when i tried it nothing happened. I would shut the door, make sure everything is off, hold number 1 and push the locked button on fob at once till it beeped. When that was done I would change the seating to test it and when i go to unlock the door from outside nothing happens I have to manually push 1. I don't know maybe I am doing something wrong or I am misunderstanding the feature.

Mine works well but instead of pressing the lock button I used the unlock button. I don't think it matters but give that a try.

Set the memory seat position buttons (this may be too obvious, but if you are starting from scratch...) Then,

With the car ignition off, in park, with the doors LOCKED, push and hold the memory seat button and then push the lock button on the key fob. You should get a funny beep and that indicates that you have paired the fob with the memory button.

That is once the memory setting linked to your key FOB, whenever you open the door, the memory will automatically adjust to your setting (assuming someone changed the setting - your wife/girlfriend or valet).

I think you can not do it without power. With the car ignition at ON position, in park, with the doors locked and program your key. what I would do is try to set the memory for your seat /mirror first and make sure it works, then link the memory setting to your key.

Maybe a dumb question, but when you hold the unlock button and all the windows open and then the sunrrof opens, can you reverse this? What if everything is down already and you want them all up?

^^ That's a No Go....


Lexus feels its not safe enough for the roll up & close function to be operated via the fob.

It would be tight if you get out and forget to roll up your windows and hit the lock button on the key fob and everything rolls up/closes! Doesn't the car automatically lock itself after so many seconds?

No, it does not. It will automatically lock, however, if you unlock the car with the remote, but do not open a door after a set amount of time.
